Unable to delete a blank page in FrameMaker 2017

Hello,

I am working on a document I imported from Word 2010. The document has one empty page that I haven't been able to delete. I have tried the Pagination- Before Saving and Printing - Delete Empty Pages procedure, but that didn't work.

Is there any way I can delete the page?

Thank you in advance for any help.

Cheers,

Elizabeth

Hi Elizabeth, can you try this series of actions? One of them will likely get you patched up.

  1. Display text symbols
  2. Confirm that the end of flow symbol is on the prior page
  3. Use the Format > Document > Delete Pages command to delete the page(s) at the end of your doc
  4. Save the file to MIF, then reopen, and use Save As to restore the original filename
  5. Write back and let us know if you have it solved, and what the solution was

Hi Matt,

The end of flow symbol appeared on the empty page and was not on the prior page. I deleted content on the prior page until I saw the end of flow symbol. From there I went to the empty page and used Format > Document > Delete page.

That worked and the empty page is now gone!

Thank you for your help! The end of flow symbol information twigged my thought process.

Cheers,

Elizabeth
